Reviews

• Łukasz from Poland (10/10)

  Everything was absolutely perfect – the owners are probably the nicest people in Rome, at least the nicest we've met. We have been looked after as in a 5* hotel. Localisation is the best in the city, place is beautiful, spacious and polished in tiniest details. Place is extremely clean and cozy, it has a lot of features. Value for money is also great. In short – we loved it!

• Tsimeki from Greece (10/10)

  Everything was perfect, thank you! 😊

• Jade from United Kingdom (10/10)

  Clean room, building managed well, quiet, ample supplies and towels daily, great location for Vatican, St Peters sq, and perfect base for exploring wider Rome.

• Tara from France (10/10)

  The place was even better than we expected: very well furnished, comfy bed, amazing shower and great view! We were very nicely welcomed and everything was super convenient. Location was also perfect!

• Paula from Spain (8/10)

  Kind, very attentive staff. The room had a very distinctive classic style, and the bathroom was renovated and clean. Personally, I really appreciated the water bottles and selection of teabags and coffee left in the room, they really came in handy!

• Paul from United Kingdom (10/10)

  Excellent location and really helpful staff

• Alexander from Austria (10/10)

  Hotel staff: Very friendly staff, that’s eager to help out in every possible way. They take their time to explain touristic must sees and places to dine at.
  
  Room: The beds are very comfortable and have fairly enough space for two people. Had to unplug one of the lights to charge my phone near bed, but that wasn’t a problem. They had a safe for valuables and also a fridge to store food that we got or beverages.
  
  Bath: The bathroom was also very clean. They have an amazing shower and the water temperature is adjustable very well to ones liking. They also have good smelling shampoo and also offered masks to cover the hair from getting wet. They also have a bidet which is 10/10
  
  Location: Very near to the Vatican and also fairly near to the other main attractions. If someone would be lazy to go by foot theres even a metro station in the near which is also nice
  
  All in all a very good experience.

• Dawn from Spain (10/10)

  The room I stayed in was clean and complete in stated amenities. Bed was comfy. The place is also very peaceful. Away from the city noise but at the same time very close to the Vatican. Best place to stay if you're planning to spend some time in the Vatican.

• Jarek from United Kingdom (9/10)

  We really enjoyed our few days in Rome. Vatican Domus Guesthouse location is perfect to get nearly everywhere within a walking distance. Easy to access via pin code, clean and spacious. Our host Salvatore was very kind and helpful.

• Laura from United States (10/10)

  Incredibly helpful and kind! Salvatore went out his way to make sure I was cared for and access was explained. The location was beautiful and quiet with the best pizza I have ever eaten just down the street! I highly recommend this hidden gem. I will be back!
